Meeting the Dark Mother

The Raven came to me many years ago as a representative of the Dark Mother. 

The Dark Mother is the void, the great unknown, the primordial mother, the cosmic womb of creation. She is associated with winter, the dark moon, and the bleeding season of menstruation. 

The Raven came in to share with me how to navigate the wild dark uncharted waters of the unknown. She showed me how to surrender into the void from a place of power rather than from a place of fear. 

The Dark Mother’s teachings showed me that if I wanted to stop being afraid of the unknown, afraid of the dark, I had to create an energetic spell of surrender within myself. 

The two main ingredients for the spell of surrender are Faith and Trust…

As I began to cultivate these two energies inside of my body, everything that wasn’t aligned with them began to fall away, and it felt so good, like taking your bra off after a long day or taking a good shit after being constipated.

The Raven shared with me how we often fear what we don't know or don't understand. She showed me how we as humans tend to focus on what's wrong and what's not right, and how little we sit in wonder about the possibilities. 

Through burning incense and sitting in a dark space with eyes open, Raven invites you to connect with her medicine. And as you witness what arises for you in the darkness, you are carried through the void, held by the breadth of her wings.

Raven will teach you to alchemize fear into wonder and begin to awaken to the magic and possibilities that await just beyond your sight. 

As a wisdom keeper of womb medicine, The Dark Mother and The Raven are powerful totems for me. Knowing how to navigate both the light and the dark is a part of our journey here on Earth. We can’t have one without the other… Let the Dark Mother be there for you when you are in the darkness, so you may move beyond the shackles of fear.
